But we already did that (in the Graphics dialog the unsigned_float_filter doesn't allow the user to insert negative values into "Scale"). This is not very difficult to add for other dialogs where it is sensible, but of course it /should/ be sensible (e.g. I have overdone this in the paragraph dialog where I used unsigned_float_filter for VSpace, which is fixed now by John, though).

IMHO the approach to disallow senseless values is good, but we have to discuss what values are sensible in each and every case. Juergen. > Allan. (ARRae)
